Mary Kelly – counsellor, psychotherapist & hypnotherapist
I provide non-judgemental, open and honest support. I help people explore their thoughts, feelings and behaviours. Together we can figure out healthier and happier ways of dealing with situations. I can help people understand issues in their lives or patterns of behaviour. My therapy sessions are a safe place where you can talk freely without fear of being judged or blamed. I have over 20 years of experience working in care and educational settings. I first began supporting people with their mental health when I worked at ChildLine as a voice and online counsellor offering a listening service to children and young people. Since 2020 I have been working in various schools in South Yorkshire and Derbyshire supporting children & young people, staff and families. I now also work in private practice with children, young people and adults.
Sessions can be face to face or alternatively via phone or video call.
I am trauma informed, attachment aware, and have additional training and experience in supporting neurodivergent children and adults.
